Swim-4-Lives is a small volunteer group and Our mission for the last 7 years has been to help support local Central Hawke’s Bay Primary Schools/Kura to engage in a range of water safety and swimming activities. This has included Deep Water Safety, Swimming Lessons (6) for targeted tamariki, boat safety and now providing 10 lessons for the whole school.

We have raised funds through running an annual Swim-A-Thon at Centralines Indoor Pool.

It is happening on Friday 17 May at 5.30pm (Week 3, Term 2)

There are three categories for the Swim-a-thon:

·        Paddle – for Novice lane swimmers – swim a length walk back and swim again

·        Swim – For competent lane swimmers – 10mins to swim as many lengths as you can

·        Team/Sprint – For teams of up to 5 swimmers – 10mins to swim as many lengths as you can

Registration forms are available at the Centralines Pool or can be downloaded from our website www.chbswim4lives.com
